I've really enjoyed your pictures and stories that go along with them. I live in a rural area, with a sheep pasture right on the other side of our back yard. I've seen so many babies and have adored each of them. I came here from San Diego, ready for a more serene life. I've never looked back. Your farm life sounds wonderful! Thank you for the blessings this morning. Debby

This is a great blog. I'm so glad I came across it. I grew up on a sheep, dairy, pig, cash crops farm. We had every animal imaginable. Chickens, ducks, geese, horses (my favorite) and more. I love the llama photos too.

My job on the farm was taking care of our 50+ head of sheep and training my border collie on them too for competition.

I just love you Blogg! I found it by looking at the "updated blogg "section and thought. WOW someone like me , lets take a look. Although I have not done as well on my blogg and at 56 I think the life style changes were more of a shock, but, hee hee hee, after a year and a half, I am still struggling along and stepping in "cow pies". Wanda..(from Canada)

Susan, I check in just about every day and finally talked my roomie into explaining "blogging" to me, (I was raised in the 80's and we used an abacus!)so I could tell you how much I enjoy your site. Thank you from the bottom of my techno-nerd heart!

Why is it that I tend to see t-shirts everywhere? I hardly ever wear any but plain ones any more, due to the ridiculousness issues which arise with age. But I can't get the Uncle Dan one ("I could have slept in the shed") out of my head, and now I'm seeing "It's a Llama thing" shirts, too.

BTW,I think it would be very appropriate to name the llamas "Lindy: and "Jeff". We might even stop nagging you-though I doubt if the chickenz ever will. Can't speak for them, of course. Heh, heh.

January 2013 update: I know word verification is a big pain, but it's the only way I can stop the ridiculous number of anonymous spam comments I get every day. I don't want to require commenters to be registered Blogger or Open ID users because I know many of you aren't. Thanks so much for your understanding!
